EDWARD ERNEST PEMBLE, OF VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, EDWARD ERNEST PEM-- BLE, a subject of the King of Great Britain, and a resident of the city of Vancouver, in the Province of BritishColumbia, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in VVindow-Frames for Vehicle- Curtains, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to improvements in Window frames for vehicle curtains, such as the curtains of automobiles and the like, and

the object of my invention is to provide a lar parts throughout the views.

The frame consists of two plates 1 and 2 having a window opening formed in each, which opening may be ribbed in any desired fashion, as indicated by the ribs 3 in Fig. 1.

One of the plates, that indicated by the numeral 2, is cut longitudinally at a point just above the top edge of the window opening as shown at at in Fig. 2, the cut extending the full width of the opening, so that the side and lower edges of the same may be 40.

pressed outwardly from the face of the plate, as indicated at 5 in Fig. 2, providing a pocket 10 adapted toreceive slidably a celluloid plate 6 which forms the window and which plate is held in. place by the edges of the opening in the other plate 1, which edges are pressed out of the plane of the body'of the plateso as to be spaced from the edges of the window opening of plate 2 a distance just suflicient to permit insertion of the celluloid window therebetween. To hold the plates together one of them is provided with slots 7 arranged ad- Specification of Letters Patent.

jacent its outer edges through which may be passed pointed members 9. pressed out of the body of the other plate which members may be bent over after insertion in their re-' spective slots 7.

The manner in which the device is used will be apparent, and to assemble it in place,

'a suitable opening having first of all been provlded in the curtain 9, all that is neces-' s'ary is to place the plate having the members 8 on the curtain on one side over the opening and press it thereon so that the members 8 pierce the curtain, after which the other plate is placed on the other side so that the members 8 enter the slots 7 these members being thenbent over and clenched so that the curtain is firmly gripped be-.

tween the plates, which then form. a permanent window frame adapted to receive.

slidably in the pocket 10 the celluloid winone.
